We all develop certain patterns and beliefs in our life that aren’t very useful for us. It’s part of the process of growing up. We hear, we see, and we are told sometimes very firmly just how it is and what we are supposed to think and feel. We become very comfortable with those beliefs and we rarely challenge ourselves to break out of them. But when we are so accustomed to feeling negative about life or people, we are truly dealing with a comfort issue that is holding us back from fully realizing our potential.

 

Some of us had great childhoods and others of us had absolutely messed up childhoods. In fact, some of us experienced some pretty horrific childhoods. As boys we grew into men and we were told to put it away, pretend it never happened, and move on. We stuffed it and sucked it and now we are unhappy people moving about in a world that feels foreign to us. The good news in all this unhappy bull is that we now are grown men and we have the ultimate power of choice.

 

Think about some of the nonsense you were told as a child. Most of heard about how boys don’t cry unless they are sissies. First of all, what is a sissy? By our fathers’ definition, a metrosexual man would look like a sissy. Is he? Of course not. In fact, he’s getting laid a lot more than you and I because he is in touch with who he is and what women want while you and I have spent how long hanging out behind the scenes trying to be “real men.” Did you ever cry in front of a woman? Most women respond to a man’s tears as though he is the most incredible little creature on earth, and he hasn’t been shunned or out casted because of a few tears. Did you ever wonder why we worked so hard to please an enigmatic society that has defined what and who we are supposed to be?

 

Being a man doesn’t have to be all that complicated. We don’t have to wander around in our security blanket of negative feelings in order to be a real man. In fact, we are pretty much on the road to liberation and each and every one of has the power to become that liberated man. You don’t have to feel bad in order to get what you want.

 

Take work for example. If you want to achieve more in your career is it really necessary to decide that you are going to be miserable working where you are right now in order to make sure that you are able to go farther in the future? Why make ourselves so uncomfortable right now for something we want down the road. We’re missing it. Can we not be happy and satisfied men and still aspire to go farther and harder in our careers? Of course we can. We just aren’t really aware of this. We use our cloak of negative feelings to prevent ourselves from feeling negative later. That’s a truly interesting concept and yet almost every single one of us has done it or is still doing it.

 

The same basic idea applies to women. We believe we have to be unhappy about the situation in order to change it. If we want to find a great woman, we don’t have to be unhappy about being alone to do so. If we aren’t feeling like we deserve a good woman, then we are obviously out there fishing with the wrong bait. What we truly believe and how we feel about ourselves and the world can be incredibly transparent to the majority of women.

 

There is absolutely nothing wrong with feeling good about who you are, feeling good about your situation, and working diligently to improve it. There is nothing wrong with recognizing that you aren’t perfect in every single way and yet still be perfectly suited to meeting a fantastic woman.

 

This cloak of negative security blanket that we love so much is also a perfect form of self sabotage. When we do have a fantastic woman at our side, we are perfect gentlemen when it comes to convincing ourselves we aren’t going to be able to hang onto her or that sooner or later she will realize that we aren’t good enough for her. Of course, is we are convinced of this, the chances that she will become convinced of this rises considerably.

 

We can accept who we are, strive for growth, and realize that if this incredible woman is giving us her attention then we are most definitely worth it. Self worth needs to come from within. And the better you feel about yourself the greater your chances are when it comes to finding and keeping a really good woman. There is no reason why you don’t deserve a good woman. In the beginning of working on your esteem, it is not unreasonable to check in by looking at who is attracted to you and why. But even if you end up sitting totally alone in the world for awhile, there is no evidence that means you are a bad guy. We have just been taught to think that way.

 

We all have been taught to believe things and feel things that aren’t serving us or our quest for a fuller, more complete life. In so many ways, the ideals we have been taught work against us. It is within our power to dissect these feelings and really look at why we hold them so dear to our hearts and then discard them in favor of more positive feelings. It is truly just one more step toward creating a positive future for ourself and hopefully our future family.

By: Terry Leslie | 12/02/2009 | Dating
Guys and women share what is known as the jealousy streak. Whenever there is a sense of competitiveness between you and another guy, jealousy strikes and behaviors turn ugly. This is so common that I could just write out the entire scenario and give you a jealous guy’s reaction verbatim.

Barriers and Eye Contact Create Mystery and Romance in Relationships

By: Terry Leslie | 01/12/2008 | Dating
One of the most difficult aspects of finding a woman is learning how to signal your interest without being a complete turn off. Men who believe that they are really seriously fantastic tend to walk up to women and it looks like they score. You know the kind of guy, he’s really attractive, in perfect health, and probably even has a perfectly even pearly white smile. He knows he looks good and that women eat him up. But he hasn’t scored.

By: Terry Leslie | 27/11/2008 | Dating
It should be so simple. You walk up and say a nice and welcoming greeting and she should smile and hang on your every word. But really, women aren’t just hanging around waiting with particular impatience to hear what you have to say, so better make it good enough to distract her from whatever she is playing through her mind at the moment.

An Active and Healthy Social Life Does Wonders in a Relationship

The way we think and what we focus on determines a great deal of what we get and how we get it. When we have a goal we reach for getting something. When we reach for “not getting” we most often fail because we are hanging out on the negative. When we look at the women and the potential for serious romantic inclination, our positive and negative thought patterns determine a great deal

Making Mistakes in a Relationship or While Dating

By: Terry Leslie | 09/11/2008 | Dating
Most of us were taught through a process of punishment or humiliation or both that mistakes are just a horrid and stupid thing to make. You should never make mistakes. Mistakes lead to bad grades, poor choices in friends, and of course, stupid life changing mistakes that might “affect” where you are headed. Mistakes can make us look as though we don’t have two working brain cells in our heads, to quote my father.
